The Property And Application of Lithium Nitride Powder

Lithium nitride This metal nitrogen compound has a molecular form of Li3N. It is a red or purple crystalline substance with a light green luster under reflected light, and a color of ruby in transmitted light.

Lithium Nitride Property:

Metallic lithium, when exposed to air in a room temperature environment, can produce lithium nitride. Lithium produces lithium nitride faster in nitrogen than in air. At this moment, all the lithium is converted to lithium-nitride. It is much more difficult for alkali-metals to form nitrides when compared with this property. It is possible to prepare sodium nitride only by atomic-beam deposition at low temperature on sapphire.
The fine powdered form of lithium nitride can be explosively combustible when heated. It is important to handle lithium nitride in an inert gas atmosphere, such as nitrogen.

Application of Lithium Nitride:

Solid electrolyte
Lithium nitride has a higher conductivity than other inorganic sodium salts. Lithium nitride has been studied extensively as a cathode and solid electrode material for batteries.

Preparation for cubic boron Nitride
Lithium nitride has many uses, including as an electrolyte. It is also a catalyst that converts hexagonal boron-nitride into cubic boron-nitride.

The organic light emitting device with a layer of electron injection
Organic Light-Emitting Devices have many advantages, including a full-solid state, active emission, a wide viewing angle (1m), fast response time (1m), able to be fabricated on flexible substrates, able to operate at varying temperatures, and consuming low unit power. Lithium nitride is used to enhance the performance of OLEDs by incorporating it into the tris (8 hydroxy quinoline ) aluminium (Alq3) layers.
